A passenger refused to wear a mask during a flight and as a protest, decided to wear a thong over his face.

The case occurred in the United States and the video soon went viral. While waiting to take off, a man expressed his reluctance to wear a mask to travel from Florida to Washington DC.

The man was identified as Adam Jenne and according to witnesses to the event, he tried to defend himself by stating that the use of a mask "is nonsense."

In turn, the passenger stated that the “coronavirus does not know that we are at a cruising altitude”, in discharging him, he questioned the measures by arguing that “it is stupid, it is all theater”. After refusing and faced with the insistence that he wear a mask, Adam decided to put red women's underwear on his face and thus try to avoid the security measure.

However, his flight was interrupted. Due to the preventive measure, and with an alert for the advance of the Omicron variant, the airlines expelled him from the flight that was to leave the Fort Lauderdale airport.

Finally, the man had to get up from his seat and leave the plane due to his refusal to wear a mask, after the flight attendants told him that he was not complying with the rules.
